KING SALOMON Lineage

 The Path of Initiation Became My North Star

The Path of Initiation of the King Solomon Lineage became my North Star.

I didn’t realize I was missing direction at first—though I knew, deep down, that something in my life wasn’t working optimally. I had insight, spiritual curiosity, and meaningful experiences, but there was no true framework holding it all together. I was moving, but not necessarily moving forward. Something essential was missing: tradition, structure, leadership.

Lineage means coming from a common origin—a single spiritual current that has been passed down through an unbroken initiatory transmission from teacher to student, primarily through oral tradition and embodied practice. This lineage did not begin with King Solomon. He himself was initiated into the lineage by his father, King David. We have written documentation going back more than 3,000 years, and records that speak of the tradition from even earlier times. The lineage became known by King Solomon’s name from his era forward, but the current itself is far more ancient.

All true mastery has come through lineage. Every great master walked a path of initiation. Lineage is not self-created. It is not invented, channeled, or personalized. It is received. The teachings are preserved through the mystery school tradition, held in purity, and passed forward exactly as they were given. There is no human mind in lineage—no personal alteration, no modification, no spiritual customization. This is what protects the integrity of the work and ensures that what is practiced today is the same current that has been practiced for thousands of years.

This lineage carries a clear path of initiation. The first step is Adept Initiation, which I offer as a Guide. From there, further initiations unfold for those called to walk the paths of healer, ritual master, and mage. Each step is designed to meet the student at the right level of readiness—energetically, psychologically, and spiritually. There are no shortcuts, and nothing is rushed. The path itself matures you.

For thousands of years, this lineage was preserved within closed mystery schools. In modern times, the work was brought to the public through Modern Mystery School, founded by Gudni Gudnason, who was sent from Europe to North America around forty years ago to open access to these teachings. From his first students, the lineage has now spread to more than fifty countries around the world. What was once hidden is now available—but the lineage itself has not changed.

This path became my North Star because it gave me direction without taking away my sovereignty. It offered structure without rigidity. It gave me depth where I had once only skimmed the surface of spirituality. Before lineage, I lived in a spiritual world that felt fragmented and inconsistent. The New Age landscape never fully landed for me—it lacked history and accountability. Lineage brought me into something real, something tested, something that did not depend on trends, personal opinions, or spiritual fashion.

Lineage didn’t give me answers—it gave me a path.

A path of discipline.

A path of responsibility.

A path of remembrance.

And through that path, my life began to organize itself around truth instead of seeking.

 The LINEAGE HOLDERS and the KEYS of MAGICK

All true lineages are protected and preserved by Lineage Holders.

Lineage holders are not figureheads or spiritual celebrities. They are stewards of the current. Their responsibility is to hold the purity of the lineage and safeguard the Keys—the initiatory Magick that activates the teachings and makes them living rather than theoretical. Without lineage holders, a lineage dissolves into philosophy. With lineage holders, the lineage remains alive, coherent, and effective.  King Salomon was a Lineage Holder as was his father King David before him.

Magick, in this context, is not fantasy, performance, or entertainment. It is the applied spiritual science of transformation—the technology of consciousness that allows a human being to purify, align, heal, and awaken. Magick is how spiritual truth moves from concept into lived reality. It is the method by which inner change becomes outer change, and awareness becomes embodiment.

Within the King Solomon lineage held by the Modern Mystery School, Magick is not improvised. It is preserved in precise tools, rituals, and initiatory processes that have been tested and refined through thousands of years of use. These tools are not given to create spiritual spectacle—they are given to support real life: clarity of mind, stability of energy, healing of patterns, strengthening of purpose, and alignment with one’s highest path.

Magick is a core aspect of lineage because lineage without Magick becomes theory, and Magick without lineage becomes unsafe. The lineage ensures that Magick is transmitted responsibly, in purity, and in a way that supports true spiritual progression rather than ego inflation or escapism.

At the level of governance and guardianship within the lineage are the Third Order and the Council of Twelve.

These are not titles of status—they are positions of service. The Third Order are those who have walked deeply through the initiatory path and carry responsibility for the stewardship of the lineage itself.

THE COUNCIL OF TWELVE

In 2017, when the Third Order was initiated, the Council of 12 was also activated. The Council of 12 is a group of 12 women, high-level initiates from all over the world who serve as leadership for the Modern Mystery School.

The Council of 12 work directly with the Third Order to execute the directives of the Hierarchy of Light for service to humanity on this earth. The 12 women provide council, confirmation and conference to the members of the Third Order about the various projects and missions of the MMS.

The women to occupy the seats on the Council of 12 are:

East                                                                                                                          
Ipsissima Luisa Nakagome
Ipsissima Tsukiko Kimura
Divina Maiko Machiya
Divina Sincere Rohi (Hiroko Ito)
Divina Hitomi Shibuya

West

Ipsissima Franca Lanyon
Ipsissima Theresa Bullard-Whyke
Ipsissima Kate Bartram-Brown
Ipsissima Liza Rossi

Divina Rita van den Berg
Divina Ann Donnelly

The women who occupy the seats of the Council of 12 rotate through their roles as is needed so you will see some of these women shift and change year-to-year.

The installation in 2017 has allowed for the Goddess power and connection with the Shekinah to be anchored through these structures of the Third Order. This manifests as the implementation of the various levels of operation required for the running of the Modern Mystery School.
